The claimed specs accompanying them say that we'll get a 4" 1136×640 pixels IGZO display, meaning high brightness at frugal battery consumption, the same A6 SoC like in the iPhone5, but clocked higher, and a quad-core PowerVR SGX544MP4 GPU, instead of the tri-core unit we have now...

It's a tyPo, it's actually 0.2GB of RAM. And, that's perfectly feasible since iOS is low in power consumption because of its limited functionality and, therefore, not much iRam is needed. Personally, I can't wait to get my hands on the new iPhone 5S/6 because I will finally be able to use my iCamera without an adapter!! Yaaaaaaayyyyy!!!

I consider "true" multitasking being able to run 2 apps on the screen at the same time like we see in the S3, S4 and Note2. Until I can compose a message without stopping a YouTube video it won't be "true" multitasking.

I just hope they can get the optimization right. My friend has a 4S that's been running iOS 7 since the release, and it's had a consistent lag throughout all 3 beta versions. I can't even imagine what it's like on the 4, probably near unusable. It's only a couple months before the iPhone 5S and iOS 7 launch, hopefully they can work out the lag problem on older devices by then.

Apple will just turn off certain functions of the OS. There is no way to get it to run in the smaller memory footprint of the earlier iToys. The iP5 is rumored to have something like 1 Gb of RAM. Apple is too stingy with their configurations. Expect more like 1.5 Gb max. And it won't be enough to really get the best performance out of the OS. 2 Gb is the sweet spot. Android has been there and done that. Even WP8 is needing 2 Gb - look at the L1020.

of course, you see that every game can run very smothy on iPhone 5, and on the SIII, NOTE II, some games on LG Nexus 4 has a little Lag.
So it is better to have more GPU than CPU, if dual core on iPhone 5 runs very smoothy imagine with a little more clock and better GPU, it will destroy the Android TOP Smartphone.

Android are fast on games but when using the apps it is lag it is horrible to feel that, i have my S 3 and my brother has the iPhone 4S, on games mine is faster of course, but in apps and menu is lag, it is horrible

Sony has been hitting homers lately if you ask me. It'll be worth it long as its what you want, user experience wise. Go for it. iPhones are my favorite not cuz I feel they're so high and mighty, but because I simply prefer the end user experience. Specs only matter when it all comes together seamlessly.

Pity them for what? For buying what they like/want, and liking it? For not being pressured into buying what others feel they should? I use both android and iOS, and wp8 if you count my fiancés 8X. I simply prefer iOS as my daily driver...what's wrong with that? You made your choice to switch to android, and that's fine it's a great OS. Let others enjoy what they want. Why pity choice, isn't that what android nation raves about? I guess choice only matters to you, when that choice is android.

Why are you so compelled to destroy them at every turn bro? And it's not that I really care about what you say, but this is the comment section of a tech site, is it not? Your views are based on a double standard ilia, people like their choice of iOS for the same reasons you like your choice of android, it works for them. You however won't accept that from an iOS user, you have to lash out at them. When someone challenges you, you respond the way you have. I say once again, just as you did when you used and defended apple tooth and nail. Let those who choose use, and enjoy iOS, enjoy their choice, just like you enjoy yours. Don't pity them, pity yourself for being hypocritical.

People change their opinions, as I did in the past regarding Apple.

Why do I attack Apple? Easy - it's fun. I really do get a kick out of it. Many on this site do. I don't lash against iOS users. I just feel compelled to strike against the company which I loath so much in this comments section.

What's in this for you, though? Why do you feel the need to defend Apple? Do you REALLY love them that much? I mean - if someone said something negative about Android - I wouldn't necessarily defended Android by responding to his\her comments. God knows this site is flooded by trolls and whatnot.

Why you trolling so much?
Exynos..WHAAAAA...
Quad core...WHAAAAA...
I don't care how much cores have my phone, but how it works.
remember the words of Steve Jobs: It's not about MHz number... it's how the software use it.
The same is now with the phones...
LUMIA 1020 is still not present. iPhone 5S/6 too..
How you judge them? Do you have a crystall ball?
